Kelly Rowland Makes Adoption Plans



Former Destiny's Child star Kelly Rowland is planning to follow in the footsteps of stars like Madonna and Angelina Jolie - by adopting a child.

The singer insists she is ready to become a mom and wants to take in a youngster from U.S. after working with a charity program for disadvantaged children. And Rowland is adamant she doesn't want to adopt a baby - because there are so many older kids in need of good homes.

She says, "I've always known I would adopt in a heartbeat but I don't want a baby - I want to get a child that's five, six, or even 10. I was doing Home for Holidays, which is a charitable holiday program for kids in the States, and some of the statistics means that older children don't get adopted as much. I'd love to make a child feel that they're worth it - because every child is worth it."

"I don't want that many children - but I want a family of five, including adopted children. That's still a lot, but I think it would be worth it."



This is wonderful news! I think it's great that Kelly wants to adopt older children because they really are harder to place. You go Kelly!


That is so, so wonderful.


So, so great.


So unselfish.
























So...













How is Ursula going to upstage this one?
